The RAAF truck looks to be a Ford ?
Would have thought that This type of thing went on regularly , these guys were unfortunately in the wrong place at the wrong time . Mind you anything reported in the 'TRUTH' newspaper wouldn't need to be taken seriously without some thorough fact checking

Accidents
Some great finds there Mike!
Interesting how the first C60L has gone partly sideways into the pole. I wonder what role alcohol played in these crashes!

RAAF trucks
The one on its side is a Ford F60L, the others are Chevrolets I think. The one which collided with the tram is a 1944 type with the overflow tank under the passenger footwell.
